The black SUV slowly drove into the villa area. The headlights illuminate the road ahead. The place where the light is spread always gives people the illusion that the outside temperature is not low.

When approaching Chen's house, the man in the driver's seat began to look left and right, craned his neck to analyze the road conditions carefully, and skillfully turned the steering wheel to park the car on the side of the parking space, and waited for the car to stabilize. Stopped and turned off the fire again, and the interior of the car was plunged into darkness in an instant. Only the light of the nearest street lamp in front crawled through the front windshield, striking a few white lights on their faces.

When raised eyes, eyes just touched the two independent villas, brightly lit.

The action of releasing the seat belts asked for the land. Yancheng seemed to have thought of something suddenly, his eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze swept over the person in the passenger seat if he didn't care, and he pursed his lips. What words rolled between his teeth, frowning and thinking for a few seconds, probably because he felt that he already knew the answer and he didn't speak again. At this moment, Chen Jinyao is still hanging his head, but he is too swollen because he is wearing too much ground. This led to awkward movements, and after a long time of groping seriously, it rustled, but in the end I became impatient and couldn't release the seat belt.

Yancheng really couldn't see it, so he leaned over to help.

"You're a bit stupid!" He tweeted, and couldn't help muttering.

Then, at the moment when the voice fell, Chen Jinyao locked his throat very rudely, fiercely, "If you have the ability, you can say it again."

"..." The desire to live made him shut up.

It was almost half past six when the couple arrived at Chen's house. The sky outside had already darkened, and the night was pulled down inch by inch, and the sky was printed with twinkling stars.

After hearing the doorbell, it was Chen Jinlin who came to open the door for them.

"Sister, brother-in-law." She enthusiastically accepted what they bought, and then complained: "You are too late. I'm almost starving to death."

"The main thing is to buy things after get off work." Chen Jinyao helped Yancheng bend over to change his shoes, joking: "It's not too late, just in time for dinner."

At this moment, the aunt came out of the kitchen, carefully carrying a casserole of mutton soup.

The rich fragrance hit, Chen Jinlin pouted her lips speechlessly.

The two sisters usually have a good relationship. Sometimes they fought each other once, and they were forgotten in the blink of an eye. When they were young, they were the most natural alliance. At this time, no matter how unkind the sister is, she can't be unrighteous. She leaned forward slowly, bending her eyes and smiling. Mysteriously: "If you ask you to come back, you will really come back, well, anyway, let's be sad."

This is unclear, Chen Jinyao squinted in confusion.

It’s bright in the living room, and there’s a show on TV, it’s noisy

When Chen Jinlin put the gifts they had brought on the coffee table, Father Chen glanced at them, then stood up and greeted them warmly, "It's just a meal at home. What else to bring, come and eat."

"Yancheng, my father and I have to have a few drinks today." Father Chen said familiarly, and he was close to Yancheng in an instant, and he felt no strangeness to his new son-in-law.

The father-in-law has taken the initiative to throw out the olive branch, and Yancheng has no reason to fail. He has curbed the little ruffian in the ordinary day, a rare seriousness, "Okay."

He looked like a very satisfying son-in-law.

As soon as the voice fell, Chen Jinyao, who was expressionless, kicked him hard.

In pain, he subconsciously "hissed" and turned to stare at him.

Chen Jinyao is not to be outdone: "What a good thing!"

"..." I have no conscience, am I not to please your father.

Father Chen doesn't usually have any small hobbies, only a few sips of wine.

Because of his health, the doctor advised him to drink less, but he just wouldn't listen, especially when there were guests at home, he seized the opportunity to talk to the guests.

This is probably the most well-founded time he can have a drink.

Chen Jinlin bought the tableware and chopsticks, "Dad, you better not drink."

"That's right, and Dad, we have to go back later, Yancheng has to drive." Chen Jinyao sighed and followed.

Father Chen was silent for a few seconds, and suddenly raised his voice: "Go back? What are you going to do? It's not that there is no room at home."

"I have to go to work tomorrow." She was a little helpless, "The clinic is too far here."

There is a feeling of soldiers coming to cover the water.

The scary thing is that it can't be blocked or covered, "You don't know how to drive."

The old stubborn is paranoid about his little hobby to the extreme.

You still can't persuade him, and he will wink at you as soon as he persuades him.

After the episode ends,

At the dinner table, the family was happy.

However, under the hint of Chen Jinlin's winking eyebrows, Chen Jinyao also gradually discovered the clues. For example, the dishes on the table, especially those placed in front of Yan Cheng and her, are more supplementary. For example, Chen The mother kept picking up vegetables for the two of them, and she was very diligent in picking up Yancheng and drinking mutton soup.

One bowl is not enough, we need another bowl.

"Mom, these..." She pursed her lips, a little hard to speak.

Mother Chen interrupted her: "Aren't you weak and afraid of cold? Eat more."

"..." I'm physically weak and afraid of cold, but something is coming to me, why bother to the innocent, what's the matter with Guan Yancheng. Chen Jinyao turned her face to her throat and quietly raised her eyes to look at Yan Cheng, but saw that he put down the bowl after drinking the wine and the roots were red, and drank the mutton soup with a satisfying drink. She stared down at his stomach for a while, slightly drumming. , The corners of her mouth twitched imperceptibly. Chen Jinyao tilted her upper body towards him and bit his ears: "Don't drink too much of this stuff."

When Yancheng heard it, he understood immediately, and immediately became happy, biting his ear back, and deliberately blowing in Chen Jinyao's ear, damp and hot with alcohol: "Are you afraid?"

"Yes, yes, I'm afraid you will be blown up on the ground." She returned to him.

"Tsk." Yancheng regained his short-lived laziness after hearing the words, and chuckled as a hooligan: "Don't be afraid, isn't there you."

Chen Jinyao frowned and said, "???"

"Fire extinguisher."

"……………………"

Although it is not clear what the two of them whispered. But Mother Chen could also vaguely see that there was a little ambiguous atmosphere between the two, and it was very harmonious. There were so many couples who meant that they were going through the days, which made her feel a lot less fearful.

Some people want to make a point at the table, think about it, and put it back in the stomach.

Recently, the rumors about them and Huo’s family made her regret. She regretted that in order to cut off her daughter’s delusion about having a married man, she kept arranging blind dates for her and finally married her hastily. Now it’s even more embarrassing. The situation.

The design of this "Hongmen Banquet" may have such a despicable taste, but the original intention is to hope that my daughter and son-in-law can have a good life.

"Yao Yao, you two are about the same age." But the one who should be side-by-side is still going to be side-by-side. Mother Chen looked at them quietly for a long time, thinking for a long time, still expecting Ai Ai to ask: "Is there any When have you ever thought about having children?" She was conservative in her mind, and when she heard that the marriage of Yan and Chen's family would not last for a long time, she was anxious to do something.

And children are a link to maintain marriage.

This topic turned too suddenly and stiffly, and it also corroborated Chen Jinlin's "sorrow". With a surprise trick, Yancheng was in a hurry and was almost scalded by the lamb. He threw it back into the bowl. He held it back, his pretty eyes hooked, thought for a while, and kicked the ball in a particularly evil manner Give Chen Jinyao: "I can do it. It depends on Jinyao. I respect her opinion."

In response, Chen's father and Chen's mother nodded in satisfaction.

Immediately he fixed his eyes to Chen Jinyao.

"........................" Just after taking a bite of rice into her mouth, Chen Jinyao almost sprayed it out again, "?????"

Chen Jinlin on the side hangs up high and does not conceal her, pursing her lips and covering her belly, laughing so hard that she can't help herself.

At this moment, Mother Chen felt that she was loyal to her ears again: "Yao Yao, you are not young anymore."

The atmosphere on the table has changed, and it seems that there is no joy in the beginning.

Under Yancheng's teasing sight, Chen Jinyao felt even more panic on his face. He responded vaguely and casually, as if he had listened in and agreed.

She was afraid that if she didn't give some attitude, she would be uttered to death.

Any travel during the Chinese New Year and coming to visit the New Year in advance are all routines.

If she knew it was such a scene, she would rather die than come.

………

It is not easy to eat this dinner.

In the end, Chen Jinyao almost ran away with Yancheng.

If you don’t listen or listen, the king chants.

But the monk who had escaped could not escape the temple. Before leaving Chen's house, Mother Chen pulled Chen Jinyao aside, and asked her, "How is that kid in Yancheng treat you?"

Parents, no matter what, their hearts are still biased towards their children.

"Well, don't worry about it." Chen Jinyao nodded.

After a pause, he said, "I will live my own life, and I will live well, Mom, like today, you embarrass me."

"What's so embarrassing." Mother Chen disapproved, "I didn't do this for you, I'm afraid of you..." The second half of the sentence stopped abruptly.

"What are you afraid of me? Are you afraid of me doing something earth-shattering because of Huo Qidong? Mom, you never believed me. I didn't do those things in high school."

"Look at you, it's still this expression, don't believe my expression."

"Don't do this anyway, Yancheng and I will have a good time. If you do this, I don't know what to do." Chen Jinyao said so much in one breath, frowning slightly, "Forget it. It's nine o'clock, so let's go first."

Mother Chen: "Okay, anyway, if you say that you are good to you, I will believe it first. By the way, I will prepare the mutton soup for you. You can take it away and eat it in a pot."

"..."

"My mother is absolutely terrible. It used to urge marriage to give birth now. It's terrible." Coming out of Chen's house, Chen Jinyao seemed a little lingering.

Yancheng walked beside her, holding her hand, a faint smile flashed under his eyes.

She concluded: "They just want to use all means to stabilize our marriage."

The moon was dim, and the street lights stretched the shadows of the two.

After being quiet for a while, Chen Jinyao raised her head to look at him, shook her hand, and asked with a smile, "Hey, are you hot?"

"Hot." Yancheng was very sincere.

"Don't worry, just go home and take a shower."

The man raised his lips, "I can't do it."

"..."

When approaching the parking space, they ran into Huo Qidong.

It was so late, and he was still on the road, holding his golden retriever.

This kind of encounter was really embarrassing. Yancheng reacted quickly and immediately pretended to be drunk. He collapsed on Chen Jinyao and rubbed her hairy head against her neck.

In the dark, Huo Qidong narrowed his eyes, "Yao Yao, long time no see."

Listening to the tone, there is also a sense of intimacy of old friends reuniting.

"..." Chen Jinyao nodded slightly, and replied "Long time no see." Then, he ended the long-awaited reunion by deliberately drunk Yancheng.

Huo Qidong squinted with interest and looked in the direction of the car leaving.

After more than half an hour, the two of them returned home.

As soon as the car stopped, the ‘drunk’ in the passenger seat rustled up, half-squinted, raised his hand to pinch the ends of her hair, and said casually: "Yao Yao?"

She subconsciously uttered an "um", then she was stunned.

Yancheng's thin lips moved slightly and became mean: "It's ugly."

"..." You are afraid that you don't know how to write dead words!

It was quiet for a moment.

Chen Jinyao urged him to get off the car quickly.

Because the inexplicable tranquility is prone to other "chemical reactions" in the narrow and dark space where there are only men and women.

The two of them collided with each other, and there seemed to be a crackling sound.

It was almost the moment when she reacted to push him, she didn't know what kind of wind Yancheng suddenly shook, grabbed her wrist with one hand, took her into his arms, pressed the back of her head with the other, and leaned over to kiss him.

The jaws that were pried open were all full of his breath, with a faint scent of wine, but full of aggressiveness, as if to tear her into his belly.
